I'd like to take all the good bits and discard all the crappy bits from all religions. I don't think that's practicable, realistically. It would probably be easier just to live making the least people miserable while getting on with my own life. It's not that hard really and I don't need self appointed moral police to tell me that's how things should be done. And if I really need forgiveness my partner provides that function.

I think that, unless you abandon logic entirely, the only thing you can really conclude there is "who had their head in their butthole a few hundred years ago" (i.e., Europeans). Whether that's relevant to the discussion now must then be argued.

Well, what are you then? Navaho?

If current US wasn't a spawn of those same genocidal europeans, your official buildings would look like teepees with totem poles in front, not roman domes and pillars.

So just stop with butthole nonsense, and suck it up.

Riiiiiiiight. And you're a "spawn" of the Parthians, Scythians, Macedonians, Goths, Huns, Mongols, and Turks, so you must go riding around all the time facing backward on a horse with a slab of rancid meat beneath your saddle, believing your mother fucked God, sporting a pierced lip, short legs, a round face, and a silly hat that looks like a bucket. Q.E.D.

I'll bet he wasn't accosted by Muslims at all. This sounds just like one of those fake rape victim reports. "Three big black back guys held me down and fondled and sucked on everything while they kept thrusting their huge, throbbing penises into me over and over and over and over! It was awful!"

I bet somebody fucked him up for fooling around with their sister or something, but he's ashamed to admit it because he's married or something. So, convenient excuse that people are eager to believe.

Well yes, I am, and no I don't have to. Which was the point. Drop the millenium old nonsense, and tune in.

Seriously? Like you're "tuning in" when you're talking about Christianity "a few hundred years ago" being like Islam today (and therefore Western societies today are no better)?

Are you fucking serious? You bombed thousands and thousands since WW2? Wanna take head count? Victims of US of A and their proxy wars vs everybody else? Talk about throwing stones in glass houses.

P.S. don't take it from me, what do I know, I'm just a balkan partisan hack, right? Take it from one of your own:

BTW, your ad hominem attack on Chomsky doesnt discredit him. Can you prove he is lying in any of his videos/lectures? Or you just have this OCD to cackle at him, because it goes against the grain of your delusions?

Also, FYI, the word "leftist" is only a pejorative in right wing circles. To me, it's just a position. And comparing left vs right position in US, it's kinda obvious why you lost last election. Right-wing rhetoric is hollow, your morale stance compromised regardless how many "so help me god" you utter, and your resort to ridicule and insults is just a symptome of intellectual impotency.

I'm just glad that you've finally admitted that you are also a leftist ideologue. It gets boring when you try and pretend that you aren't _________________Always do the opposite of what SJWs say.

Obama played the race card. Hillary played the woman card. America played the Trump card.

If anti-stupid is leftist, proud to represent.

I just happen to think that there is nothing holy about your country that enables you to talk shit about other people... get it? Since you guys obviously circle-jerk all the time how splendid you are, I have to give my perspective to balance things out and get it back to normal.

So... US of A is basically bunch of protestant (and some catholic) shitheads exterminating natives so that they could pretend to be The New Rome. As if Rome was cast in positive light in The Bible. So not only do you suck at your own religion by obviously NOT reading The Bible, you also suck at being Romans.

Because, Romans did enrich the countries they conquered, after they murdered, raped and pillaged, of course. You lot only leave McDonalds behind. Disguisting. Also NOT exquisite taste.

You may be an atheist on individual basis. You still have "god" on your dollar bills, you still swear on Bible in the court of law. From european perspective, it's almost like middle-east. You still have people screaming "god hates fags" and smashing abortion clinics. Religion and society viewed through the prism of religion is still a big issue with the electorate. Hell I bet that large portion of US population still believe that Noah actually had two of each animal on a boat, and that the world is 6000 years old.

Not only that, people like that are running and getting elected for offices and various positions of power. To me it equals to either acute ignorance or insanity. People in US still largely don't know the difference between a belief and a theory.
